TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a PD-L1 antagonist compound and a method for treating/preventing immune-related conditions.

BACKGROUND

Because of its excellent efficacy and innovation, cancer immunotherapy was named the most important scientific breakthrough of the year by Science magazine in 2013. Cancer immunotherapy is expected to become an innovation in the field of tumor therapy after surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and targeted therapy. According to cancer immunotherapy, the immunogenicity of tumor cells and the sensitivity to effector cell killing are improved, and the body's anti-tumor immune response is stimulated and enhanced through the application of immunological principles and methods; and tumors are killed and tumor growth is inhibited by using immune cells and effector molecules to infuse the host in vivo, and cooperating with the body's immune system. Cancer immunotherapy has attracted much attention recently and is the focus of tumor therapy. In recent years, the good news of cancer immunotherapy has continued. At present, it has shown strong anti-tumor activity in the treatment of some tumor types such as melanoma and non-small cell lung cancer, and cancer immunotherapy drugs have been approved by the U.S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration, FDA) for clinical use.

PD-1 (programmed death 1) is a member of the CD28 superfamily. Immunomodulation targeting PD-1 is of great significance in anti-tumor, anti-infection, anti-autoimmune diseases and survival of organ transplant. Its ligand PD-L1 can also serve as a target and the corresponding antibody can also play the same role. PD-L1 (programmed cell death-Ligand 1) is a first type transmembrane protein of 40 kDa in size. Under normal circumstances, the immune system will respond to foreign antigens that accumulate in the lymph nodes or spleen, and promote the proliferation of antigen-specific T cells. The binding of PD-1 to PD-L1 can transmit inhibitory signals and reduce the proliferation of T cells. One way for tumor cells to evade destruction by T cells is to produce PD-L1 on the surface of T cells. When PD-1 on the surface of immune T cells recognizes PD-L1, inhibitory signals can be transmitted, and T cells is not able to detect tumor cells and send out attack signals to the tumor cells. PD-1 is a novel immunotherapy that evades the immune system the depletion of tumor cells. The mechanism of PD-1 immunotherapy is to design specific protein antibodies against PD-1 or PD-L1, prevent the recognition process of PD-1 and PD-L1, and partially restore T cell function, so that T cells can kill tumor cells.

PD-1 is expressed in activated T cells, B cells and myeloid cells with two ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2. PD-L1/L2 is expressed in antigen presenting cells, and PD-L1 is also expressed in various tissues. The binding of PD-1 to PD-L1 mediates co-inhibitory signaling of T cell activation, regulates T cell activation and proliferation, and plays a negative regulatory role similar to CTLA-4. Chinese scientist Chen Lieping's laboratory first discovered that PD-L1 is highly expressed in tumor tissues and regulates the function of tumor infiltrating CD8 T cells. Therefore, the immunoregulation targeting PD-1/PD-L1 is of great significance against tumors.

A number of therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) targeting the PD-1/PD-L1 interaction have been approved by the U.S. FDA for marketing. In addition to the development of related monoclonal antibodies, the search for oral small molecule compounds that are convenient for cancer patients to target inhibition of immune checkpoints is also a frontier domain of cancer immunotherapy. Small molecule compounds can pass through the cell membrane and act on intracellular targets, so they have a wide range of applications. Secondly, small molecules often have good bioavailability and compliance after chemical modification, effectively avoiding the decomposition and inactivation of enzymes in the digestive intestine. Finally, the research on small molecules is also quite mature in many aspects such as production process, dosage form design and administration mode.

Most monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) are administered by high-dose intravenous injection. Small molecule drugs, which are more suitable for oral administration, can reduce serious immune-related adverse events. Compared with monoclonal antibodies, small molecule drug inhibitors have many other benefits, such as more economical and stable manufacturing costs, and better permeability to organs and tumors. Given the numerous advantages of small molecule pharmacokinetic properties, it will exhibit dose flexibility in monotherapy or other combination schemes. The small molecule compounds of the present invention may provide an attractive treatment option for patients and physicians.

The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the present invention may be prepared by a conventional method, for example, by dissolving the compound of the present invention in a water-miscible organic solvent (e.g., acetone, methanol, ethanol, and acetonitrile), adding an excess of an aqueous organic or inorganic acid thereto to precipitate the salt from the resulting mixture, removing the solvent and remaining free acid therefrom, and then isolating the precipitated salt.

The precursors or metabolites of the present invention may be those known in the art as long as the precursors or metabolites are converted into compounds by metabolism in vivo. For example, “prodrugs” refer to those of the compounds of the present invention which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of humans and lower animals without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and the like, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio, and effective for their intended use. The term “prodrugs” refer to compounds which yield the parent compounds of the above-mentioned formulae rapidly through transformation in vivo, for example, through metabolism in vivo, or N-demethylation of a compound of the present invention. “Solvate” of the present invention means a physical association of a compound of the present invention with one or more solvent molecules (whether organic or inorganic).

The solvent molecules in the solvate may be present in a regular and/or disordered arrangement. Solvates may include stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric solvent molecules. “Solvate” encompasses both solution-phase and isolatable solvates. Exemplary solvates include, but are not limited to, hydrates, ethanolates, methanolates, and isopropanolates. Methods of solvation are well known in the art.

The “stereoisomerism” of the present invention is divided into conformational isomerism and configurational isomerism, and the configurational isomerism can also be divided into cis-trans isomerism and optical isomerism (i.e., optical isomerism). The conformational isomerism refers to a stereoisomerism phenomenon in which the rotation or distortion of the carbon-carbon single bond of an organic molecule with a certain configuration makes the atoms or atomic groups of the molecule produce different arrangements in space, and common examples include the structures of alkanes and cycloalkanes, such as chair and boat conformations as found in the cyclohexane structure. “Stereoisomers” means when the compounds of the present invention contain one or more asymmetric centers, thus they can be served as racemates and racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, diastereomeric mixtures, and single diastereomers. The compounds of the present invention may have asymmetric centers, each of which produces two optical isomers, and the scope of the present invention includes all possible optical isomers and diastereomeric mixtures and pure or partially pure compounds. The compounds of the present invention may exist in the form of tautomers, which have different linking points of hydrogen through the displacement of one or more double bonds. For example, ketone and its enol form are keto-enol tautomers. Each tautomer and mixtures thereof are included in the compounds of the present invention. All enantiomers, diastereomers, racemates, mesomers, cis-trans-isomers, tautomers, geometric isomers, epimers, and mixtures thereof of the compounds of Formula (I) are included within the scope of the present invention.

An “isotopic derivative” of the present invention refers to a molecule in which a compound is labeled with an isotope in this patent. Isotopes commonly used as isotopic labels are: hydrogen isotopes, 2H and 3H; carbon isotope: 11C, 13C and 14C; chlorine isotope: 35Cl and 37Cl; fluorine isotope: 18F; iodine isotope: 123I and 125I; nitrogen isotopes: 13N and 15N; oxygen isotopes: 15O, 17O and 18O and sulfur isotope 35S. These isotopically labeled compounds can be used to study the distribution of pharmaceutical molecules in tissues. Deuterium 2H and carbon 13C, in particular, are more widely used due to their ease of labeling and ease of detection. Substitution of certain heavy isotopes, such as heavy hydrogen (2H), may enhance metabolic stability, prolong the half-life, and provide therapeutic advantages resulting from reduced dosage. Generally, starting from the labeled starting materials, isotopically-labeled compounds are synthesized by using known synthesis techniques in the same way as the synthesis of non-isotopically labeled compounds.

The compound or pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be formulated into dosage forms, such as tablets, granules, powders, capsules, syrups, emulsions, microemulsions, solutions or suspensions, for oral or parenteral administration (including intramuscular, intravenous and subcutaneous routes, and intratumoral injection) according to any of the conventional methods.

Pharmaceutical Compositions and Dosages

As used herein, the phrase “pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a pharmaceutical material, composition or vehicle, such as a liquid or solid filler, diluent, excipient, manufacturing adjuvant (e.g., lubricant, talc, magnesium stearate, calcium stearate or zinc stearate or stearic acid), or solvent encapsulating material, which refers to carrying or transporting the subject compound from one organ or portion of the body to another organ or portion of the body. Each carrier must be “acceptable” in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the patient.

The term “pharmaceutical composition” means a composition including a compound of the present invention and optionally other pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. “Pharmaceutically acceptable carrier” means a medium generally accepted in the art for the delivery of a biologically active agent to an animal, particularly a mammal, and includes, i.e., adjuvants, excipients, or vehicles such as diluents, preservatives, fillers, flow regulating agents, disintegrating agents, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, suspending agents, sweetening agents, flavoring agents, perfuming agents, antibacterial agents, antifungal agents, lubricating agents, and dispersing agents. This depends on the mode of administration and the nature of the dosage form.

The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may include a therapeutically effective amount of one or more compounds of the present invention formulated together with optionally one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers (additives) and/or diluents, and optionally one or more of the other therapeutic agents described above. The compounds of the present invention may be administered for any of the above-mentioned uses by any suitable means, for example by orally, such as in the form of tablets, pills, powders, granules, elixirs, tinctures, suspensions (including nanosuspensions, microsuspensions, spray-dried dispersions), syrups and emulsions; by sublingually; by buccally; by parenterally, such as by subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular or intrasternal injection or infusion techniques (e.g., in the form of sterile injectable aqueous or nonaqueous solutions or suspensions); by nasally, including administration to the nasal mask, such as by inhalation spray; by topically, such as in the form of a cream or ointment; or by rectally, such as in the form of suppositories; or by intratumoral injection. They may be administered alone, but are generally administered using pharmaceutical acceptable carriers selected based on the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice.

The pharmaceutical acceptable carriers are formulated according to a number of factors within the knowledge of those skilled in the art. These factors include, but are not limited to: types and properties of the formulated active agents; a subject to be administered the composition containing the active agent; the intended route of administration of the composition; and targeted therapeutic indications. The pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include aqueous and non-aqueous liquid media and various solid and semi-solid dosage forms.

The above-mentioned carrier may include many different ingredients and additives in addition to the active agent, and the above-mentioned other ingredients, for example, stabilizing active agent and binder, are included in the formulation for various reasons known to those skilled in the art. For a description of suitable pharmaceutical acceptable carriers and factors involved in the selection of carrier, see a number of readily available sources, such as Allen L. V. Jr. et al. Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy (2 Volumes), 22nd Edition (2012), Pharmaceutical Press.

The dosage regimen for the compounds of the present invention will, of course, vary depending upon known factors such as the pharmacodynamic characteristics of the particular agent and its mode and route of administration; species, age, sex, health, medical condition and weight of the recipient; the nature and extent of symptoms; kind of concurrent treatment; treatment frequency; routes of administration, renal and hepatic function and desired effects in patients. According to general guidelines, when used for a given effect, the daily oral dosage of each active ingredient should be from about 0.001 mg/day to about 10-5000 mg/day, preferably from about 0.01 mg/day to about 1000 mg/day, and most preferably from about 0.1 mg/day to about 250 mg/day. During constant infusion, the most preferred intravenous dose should be from about 0.01 mg/kg/min to about 10 mg/kg/min. The compounds of the present invention may be administered in a single daily dose, or the total daily dose may be administered in divided doses of two, three or four times daily.

The compounds are generally administered in the form of a mixture of suitable pharmaceutical diluents, excipients, or carriers (collectively referred to herein as pharmaceutical acceptable carriers) suitably selected with respect to the intended form of administration (e.g., oral tablets, capsules, elixirs, and syrups) and consistent with conventional pharmaceutical practice.

Dosage forms (pharmaceutical compositions) suitable for administration may contain from about 1 mg to about 2000 mg of active ingredient per dosage unit. In these pharmaceutical compositions, the active ingredient will generally be present in an amount of about 0.1-95% by weight, based on a total weight of the composition.

Typical capsules for oral administration contain at least one compound of the present invention (250 mg), lactose (75 mg) and magnesium stearate (15 mg). The mixture was processed through a 60 meshes screen and packaged into No.1 gelatin capsules.

A typical injectable formulation may be prepared as follows: at least one compound of the present invention (250 mg) was placed in a vial in a sterile manner, and lyophilized and sealed in a sterile manner. For use, the contents in the vial were mixed with 2 mL of normal saline to produce an injectable formulation.

The scope of the present invention includes (alone or in combination with a pharmaceutical acceptable carrier) pharmaceutical compositions containing a therapeutically effective amount of at least one compound of the present invention as an active ingredient. Optionally, the compounds of the present invention may be used alone, in combination with other compounds of the present invention, or in combination with one or more other therapeutic agents (e.g., anticancer agents or other pharmaceutically active agents).

Regardless of the selected route of administration, the compounds of the present invention (which may be used in suitable hydrated forms) and/or the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention are formulated into pharmaceutically acceptable dosage forms by conventional methods known to those skilled in the art.

The actual dosage level of the active ingredient in the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be varied so as to obtain an amount of the active ingredient that is effective to achieve the desired therapeutic response, composition, and mode of administration for a particular patient without being toxic to the patient.

The selected dosage level will depend upon a variety of factors, including the factors well known in the medical field such as the activity of the employed specific compound of the present invention, or an ester, salt or amide thereof; routes of administration; administration time; the discharge rate of the employed specific compound; the absorption rate and extent; duration of treatment; other drugs, compounds and/or substances used in combination with the employed specific compounds; the age, sex, weight, condition, general health and prior medical history of the patient being treated.

A physician or veterinarian having ordinary skill in the art can readily determine and prescribe an effective amount of the desired pharmaceutical composition. For example, to achieve the desired therapeutic effect, the physician or veterinarian may start a relatively small amount of the compound of the present invention used in the pharmaceutical composition below the desired level and gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved. In general, a suitable daily dose of a compound of the present invention will be that amount of the compound that is the lowest dose effective to produce a therapeutic effect. Such an effective dose will generally depend on such factors. In general, oral, intravenous, intracerebroventricular, and subcutaneous doses of a compound of the present invention for a patient range from about 0.01 to about 50 mg/kg body weight/day. If desired, an effective daily dose of the active compound may be administered in two, three, four, five, six or more sub-doses respectively at appropriate intervals throughout the day, optionally in unit dosage form. In certain aspects of the present invention, the medication is administered once a day.

Although the compound of the present invention may be administered alone, it is preferably administered in the form of a pharmaceutical preparation (composition).

Cell Based PD-1/PD-L1 NFAT Reporter Assay

Compounds of the present patent were tested in a cell based PD-1/PD-L1 NFAT reporter assay.

Background

The cell-based luciferase reporter assay is used for monitoring the PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor by characterizing the biological activity of PD-1: PD-L1 interactions in cellular context. PD-1/NFAT-Reporter-Jurkat cells stably over-expressing human PD-1 with NFAT reporter are used as effector cells. TCR activator/PD-L1—CHO cells over-expressing PD-L1 and an engineered T cell receptor (TCR) activator are used as target cells. When these two cells are co-cultivated, TCR complexes on effector cells are activated by TCR activator on target cells, resulting in expression of the NFAT luciferase reporter. However, PD1 and PD-L1 (or PD-L2) ligation prevents TCR activation and suppresses the NFAT-responsive luciferase activity. This inhibition can be specifically reversed by anti-PD1 or anti-PD-L1 inhibitors. PD1/PD-L1 inhibitors block PD1:PD-L1 interaction and promote TCR activation, resulting in reactivation of the NFAT responsive luciferase reporter.

Materials and Equipment

PD-1/NFAT—Reporter—Jurkat cell (Cat: 60535) and TCR activator/PD-L1—CHO cell (Cat: 60536) were purchased from BPS Bioscience. Anti-human PD-L1 antibody (Atezolizumab, Cat: A2004) was purchased from Selleck; luciferase reporter gene expression detection kit (ONE-Glo™ Luciferase Assay System, Cat: E6120) was purchased from Promega; multifunction plate reader (SpectraMax i3x) was purchased from Molecular Devices.

Procedures

PD-1/NFAT—Reporter—Jurkat cells and TCR activator/PD-L1—CHO cells were cultured in recommended media respectively.

Harvest TCR activator/PD-L1-CHO cells from culture and seed cells at a density of 35,000 cells per well into 96-well microplate in 100 l of growth medium. Incubate cells at 37° C. in a CO2 incubator overnight. Next day, discard the culture media, add diluted compound in assay medium for 30 min. Anti-PD-L1 antibody (Atezolizumab, final concentration 10 nM) and 0.1% DMSO were the positive and negative control, respectively. Harvest the PD-1/NFAT-reporter-Jurkat cells by centrifugation and add to the wells. After 6 hour incubation, perform luciferase assay using the ONE-Glo™ Luciferase Assay System, following the manufacturer's assay protocol.

Anti-PD-L1 antibody (Atezolizumnab, 10 nM) was used as positive control to calibrate the inhibition rate using the following equation:


% inhibition=(Sample luminescence/Average vehicle group luminescence−1)/(Average PD-L1 group luminescence/Average vehicle group luminescence−1)×100%.
